This is the first time the meeting has been held in the US since 1989. Publishers Weekly discusses it in an article here:
The International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organizations (IFRRO) will hold its 2010 Annual General Meeting in in Boston from October 25-28, the first time the meeting has been in America since 1989. The meeting, themed “Advancing Licensing Solutions for a Changing World: Collaborating, Adapting, Building, Advocating,” will bring together some 250 delegates from all over the world to discuss copyright related issues—from piracy, to broader legislative themes, and nuts and bolts practices, as well as hot topics of the day such as the Google books settlement.
